INTRODUCTION
1-1. THE SMART MATRIX OPERATING MODE
Native Matrix Mode
Before you start setting up your Smart MatriX (SMX200) for the rst time, be sure you know what you actually
want to do with it. The Smart MatriX offers one operating mode, which results in a versatile video production
tool for live event staging and xed installation applications.
* NOTE * : We recommend resetting the device to its default values every time you set up your shows or
events (see the “Operating The Smart MatriX” chapter, p28).
This mode turns your Smart MatriX into a true 12 x 2 High End Scaled Matrix, while preserving seamless
switching capabilities. Main and Preview outputs can be set to different resolutions and rates. Switching
between any of the inputs can be done with the various effects (Cut, Fade, Slides…) and synchronized on
both outputs.

PIP: a “PIP” (Picture In Picture), is a picture, typically of reduced size, which is positioned over another
background image or PIP. PIPs can be reduced, enlarged and bordered. PIPs can overlap, depending on
their visual priority.
Smart MatriX allows for Dynamic PIP on the opening and closing of the sequence, vertically or horizontally. A
“Flying” PIP is also possible over the screen with vertical, horizontal or diagonal animation. A PIP is considered
as a live layer.
FRAME: a “Frame” is a full screen image which is selected from one of the eight still frames which you can
capture with the Smart MatriX. A Frame can be ash captured and imported from any video or computer
source plugged into the machine.
LOGO: a “Logo” is a part of screen image that can be ash captured and imported from any Video or
Computer source, by keying or image cut-out. Smart MatriX can record up to 8 still logos. They can be
positioned anywhere on the screen. An animated logo is also available on the eighth input.
KEYING: a “Key” is an electronic process whereby an image is electronically superimposed over another
source or background, by cutting out either a color (Chroma Key), or its brightness or luminance levels (Luma
Key). Keys are typically used for titles, logos and special effects.
Smart MatriX allows to use a live source with green or blue background and to key it over any other live input.
1-2. USEFUL TERMS AND DEFINITIONS
BACKGROUND: a “Background” is a source, typically originating from a computer. Smart MatriX enables
you to work with live or still (frame) background sources - visually in back of all other sources.
LAYER: a “Layer” is an image display element (such as a PIP window, Key, Logo(s) or Background) that has
an associated visual priority — either in front (or in back) of another layer.
The Smart MatriX can simultaneously view no less than 4 layers (2 video, 1 frame & 1 Logo, per output).
Smart MatriX can insert up to 2 PIPs on a live background, plus 2 logos.

la pluie, à l’humidité et aux sources de chaleur intense.
• INSTALLATION: Veillez à assurer une circulation d’air sufsante pour éviter toute surchauffe à l’intérieur
de l’appareil. Ne placez pas l’appareil sur ou à proximité d’une surface textile susceptible d’obstruer
les orices de ventilation. N’installez pas l’appareil à proximité de sources de chaleur comme un
radiateur ou une poche d’air chaud, ni dans un endroit exposé au rayonnement solaire direct, à des
poussières excessives, à des vibrations ou à des chocs mécaniques. Ceci pourrait provoquer un mauvais
fonctionnement et un accident.
• ALIMENTATION: Ne faire fonctionner l’appareil qu’avec la source d’alimentation indiquée sur l’appareil.
Les appareils doivent être obligatoirement connectés sur une source équipée d’une mise à la terre efcace.
En aucun cas cette liaison de terre ne devra être modiée, contournée ou supprimée.
• CORDON D’ALIMENTATION: Les appareils sont équipés d’un interrupteur général (Marche I / Arrêt
O), la mise en tension et la mise hors tension se fait en actionnant cet interrupteur général. Attention:
le cordon d’alimentation constitue le seul moyen de débrancher l’appareil totalement de l’alimentation
secteur. Pour être certain que l’appareil n’est plus alimenté, ce cordon doit être débranché de la prise
murale.
Appliquer les consignes suivantes :
- Le matériel relié à demeure au réseau, doit avoir un dispositif de sectionnement facilement accessible
qui doit être incorporé à l’extérieur de l’appareil.
- Débrancher le cordon d’alimentation de la prise murale si vous prévoyez de ne pas utiliser l’appareil
pendant quelques jours ou plus.
- Pour débrancher le cordon, tirez-le par la che. Ne tirez jamais sur le cordon proprement dit.
- La prise d’alimentation doit se trouver à proximité de l’appareil et être aisément accessible.
- Ne laissez pas tomber le cordon d’alimentation et ne posez pas d’objets lourds dessus.
Si le cordon d’alimentation est endommagé, débranchez-le immédiatement de la prise murale. Il est
dangereux de faire fonctionner un appareil avec un cordon endommagé; un câble abîmé peut provoquer un
risque d’incendie ou un choc électrique. Vériez le câble d’alimentation de temps en temps. Contactez votre
revendeur ou le service après-vente pour un remplacement.
• CONNEXIONS: Toutes les entrées et sorties (exceptée l’entrée secteur) sont de type TBTS (Très Basse
Tension de Sécurité) dénies selon EN 60950.
